    Our entire team's heart seems to be out with an injury. They need to get it back or they'll break mine :(

    last season some of us in the game threads were wondering what was going on for a long stretch of about 30? games when we didn't have any of the fixer refs working our games and it was (correctly) predicted that they were just being saved for the GS series. we actually had marc davis recently though and i can't remember the last time we won any game with him on the floor

    If the Rockets give the effort they gave against Portland, I'd say it's likely that they win tonight.

    Unfortunately...they've given that sort of effort only 2 or 3 times this season. Hard to expect them to do it back to back games. We'll see.

    the better effort and inspired play of nene/GG were definitely factors in that win. but a lot of it was also that we just match up very well with POR. when harden/ego are allowed to basically score at will on drives in the paint it makes our offense very difficult to stop. this was also largely the case @ LAL earlier this season so will be interesting to see how much affect (if any) old man chandler has on that tonite

    Will there be more Laker fans than Rockets fans this game?

    It's time for a good game at both ends of the court. It's LA, we hate them, they suck, and we're going to win. :cool:

    No doubt. Matchup advantages helped. But that was one of the first times we've seen the Rockets really look excited to play.

    We should have advantages tonight as well. We'll see what happens.

    Here is a question, would you rather Harden block Lebron or Dunk on Lebron?
